A Georgia examiner in 2026 asks to see risk assessments and the incident response plan alongside the security program. May the Department review those applicable security-program elements during oversight?

Correct Answer

C) Within scope: the Department reviews those elements in oversight work

As part of its regulatory oversight the Department reviews, to the extent applicable, a licensee information security program, risk assessments, incident response plans and other required elements of the Safeguards Rule. Other choices: the rule names more than the program; no incident is needed to trigger the review; and it is the Department own oversight rather than a joint examination. Source: Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. 80-11-1-.08

Answer Options
A
Within scope only where the examination is a federal joint examination
B
Out of scope, because only the written program itself may be reviewed
C
Within scope: the Department reviews those elements in oversight work
D
Out of scope unless the licensee has had a security incident recently
